As promised yesterday, here are photos of some of my meals from the past week. I eat 5-6 times a day so please keep in mind that these are not all my meals. I’m afraid protein shakes, greek yogurt and veggies with hummus can become a little repetitive around here!
Now let’s begin with Monday morning at my mother-in law’s house – my overnight oats prepared and brought from home. I shared the dets on this gem, earlier this week.

Before hitting the road to return home, we were fed a delicious homemade plate of chili con carne and spanish rice. Sorry for the horrible photo quality, the 1st few photos were taken with my phone but I promise the quality gets better, as you scroll down!
Dinner on the road was my old stand-by. Unsweetened green tea and a spinach feta wrap from Starbucks, love these things and they serve them day & night!

Home sweet home calls for good ole’ baked oatmeal and a mug of green tea. I’ve been on a real green tea kick lately.
Usual topping is nf plain greek yogurt topped with stevia & cinnamon.
This salad is everything I added to my ‘salad in a jar’ except it’s on a plate here.

The topping on my pancakes is nf plain greek yogurt, sweetened with cinnamon & stevia.
Egg white crepes with creamy pumpkin filling- recipe shared a few days back.

Salmon salad stuffed inside a toasted whole wheat pita.
Salmon, a whole lot of mustard, spinach, peppercinis, grape tomatoes and Mrs. Dash Fiesta Lime seasoning.
Mom-in-law sent us home with a nice size jar of her delicious homemade salsa so I made that the key ingredient for our dinner. Drowned our chopped chicken breast in it, added some veggies and a sweet potato with guacamole and more salsa!

Nothing too crazy here, just some ezekiel bread topped with almond butter, banana and kiwi.
Another great big salad for lunch with all my favorite toppings- chopped chicken meatballs (purchased from Costco) , grape tomatoes, peppercinis, feta cheese and a toasted and broken up whole wheat pita.

Instead of chicken this night, I chopped up & sauteed up pork loin and added more homemade ^^ salsa – I really need to find out her recipe, SO good!! On the side, were sauteed potatoes, green beans and mushrooms that I bought from Trader Joe’s in the freezer aisle. I love this mix – so darn tasty!

Steel cut oats topped with banana, kiwi, chocolate pb2 and a dollop of white chocolate dreams peanut butter.

1/4 c steel cut oats cooked in half water, half unsweetened almond milk. After the oats were done, I mixed in a 1/2 scoop of protein powder.
Flat-Out wrap with more chicken meatballs, spinach, guacamole and jalapenos – a lot of green going on in there, huh!?

Last, but definitely not least, dinner last night was stuffed salmon topped on a mashed sweet potato (nothing added) with roasted broccoli and asparagus.

While I’m off to start my Saturday, not too much planned for the day so we’ll see where that leads me!
XOXO,

Hi Angel,
I have been following you on Facebook and have just been looking at your blog. I think it is great and really appreciate you sharing all of this! My goal is to lose 20 lbs in order to get healthy and fit – to have a healthy pregnancy in the near future. I like the concept of 5-6 meals a day. How do you know how many calories to have? I always thought this would involve very little food at each meal, but from looking at your meals and others I see that is not the case. Could you give me some advice?
Thanks!
Megan
Hi Megan,
Make sure that your mini meals are clean and even though I don’t count calories on a daily basis, I’ll pick like one day out of the week, each week and count them just to make sure I’m getting in enough calories or not going overboard. I do try to stay in the range of about 450 calories per bfast, lunch, dinner and my other two meals at about 250 calories. Please also keep in mind that I’m also not trying to lose weight.:)
Keep in mind that everybody’s body is different so the amount of calories that work for me may not work for you, you’ll have to tweek it a bit depending on your height and activity through out the day. I’m 5’4 by the way.
Hope this helps.
xoxo,
Angel
